> [@spectrum](#): > > Is it possible to have a limited timeframe that users can comment on each thread created in Discourse? For example, if we create a post, people have only one week to comment on it – or if it goes without a comment for a month or so, it will be locked automatically? Yes both scenarios are supported via timed close on a topic. > [@spectrum](#): > > Is it possible to have long comments shown in a teaser mode, so they don’t stretch the page – but the full comment can be viewed by clicking on it? No, but [we have considered this](https://meta.discourse.org/t/default-mode-for-long-topics-active-summarize-this-topic/59024/2) for [very long posts](https://meta.discourse.org/t/dealing-with-highly-contentious-discussions/62887/8), it is not a major concern because VLPs are quite rare in the wild. > [@spectrum](#): > > Is it possible to show no preview of the Discourse comments on an article, but instead, show a link to the comment thread? Do you mean via embedding Discourse on, say, a blog? Yes that is possible. Discourse embedding is read only though, which is very compatible with this particular case. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-feature-questions/86648)._
